Can soft triangle area be resected to round it out & can kenalog/5FU create a supratip break? (Photos)

dbk101Nov 16, 2024
Had revision rhinoplasty 2 years ago, w/rib cartilage to form a defined tip. Excellent results; however, the nostrils look bad due to soft triangle areas having excess skin or cartilage. Can this be resected to round it out? I dislike how they angle downard toward the columella. The tissue to resect in the left soft triangle feels like cartilage from my tip, and right side may be skin or cartilage. ALSO, can kenalog or 5FU create a supratip break? (If I tape it, I get a supratip break for a day)

Based on your photos, you appear to have relatively thin nasal skin, and this can make somebody prone to see irregularities following rhinoplasty surgery. And our experience, nasal indentations following rhinoplasty surgery may be significantly improved upon utilizing microdroplet Silikon-1000...
